Oh look - another game where we got stonewalled inside the 3 yard line, another game where we took the points on 4th and ANOTHER game where the points ended up proving massive as Atlanta twice had to go for it on 4th down to score a TD instead of just kick the FG to take the lead...
But yeah - let's just keep pretending that the calculators will give us the right answer...

And on the flip side, the analytics told Atlanta to go for it on 4th and medium from the 7 yard line or whatever on their second-to-last drive.
In retrospect, had they kicked the field goal there they’re only down 22-20. Make a quick stop on us, like they did, they would have been driving for a game-winning field goal on the final drive.
